IMG signs Li Na

Li Na has signed with IMG, the leading client management company in tennis, and has thus joined IMG’s top clients including women’s tennis superstars such as Maria Sharapova, Venus Williams, Lindsay Davenport, Jelena Jankovic, Monica Seles, and others.

“We are very pleased to have Li Na as an IMG client,” said Max Eisenbud, IMG senior vice president who will manage the Chinese world No.16.

“She has been one of the most successful players in China’s history and in 2009 became Asia and China’s No. 1 player with a world ranking of No. 18. She has been largely hailed as being instrumental in advancing the sport within China.” (source: On the Baseline, photo via Sony Ericsson WTA Tour)
